Fandom Hall of Fame: Musicians Wearing Other Musicians’ T-Shirts

There is something endlessly fascinating about seeing members of our favorite bands wearing the T-shirts of other acts. Sure, these wardrobe choices may sometimes be ironic. But for the most part, musicians seem to wave other musicians’ flags for exactly the same reasons we do: to proclaim our undying fandom. And it’s always exciting to see that someone whose music we’re into shares some facet of our musical taste. After the jump, we’ve collected 20 great photos of our favorite icons — Joan Jett, Kurt Cobain, Thurston Moore, Jay-Z — wearing other bands’ T-shirts.

Kurt Cobain wearing a Flipper T-shirt.

Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney, Wild Flag) wears a Last Waltz T-shirt. Does that make her a fan of The Band, Martin Scorsese, or both?

Eddie Vedder flashes his punk-rock credentials with this Plasmatics T-shirt.

And Chris Cornell, back in his first run with Soundgarden, reps Pearl Jam.

Nathan Williams (a.k.a. Wavves) is all about Bad Brains… and Kenny Loggins?
